As we mentioned in the introduction, cube
terms were introduced in [1]} to show that
a finite algebra \(\mathbf {A}\)  has few subpowers
if and only if \(\mathbf {A}\) 
has a cube term.
More manageable terms that are equivalent to cube terms (e.g., edge terms,
star terms) were also found in [1]}.
In this paper we will use another
family of equivalent terms, called parallelogram terms,
which were introduced
in [3]}.
